Apple initially launched the Vision Pro spatial computing device in only the US. It was apparently done to cope with the supply chain issues and to simplify the sales process. One notable limitation of the Vision Pro headset at present is that it only supports English. Additionally, its virtual keyboard and autocorrect function is limited to English (US).
This is apparently fine as the headset is only available in the US at present. But won’t Apple sell it outside the US? Well, there’s a possibility that Apple is preparing for a global launch, or at least in some other countries. And Apple has also confirmed that they will sell it to more countries by the end of 2024.

We reported last month that this $3,500 headset could potentially launch in China as soon as April or May. Now looking at the languages Apple is working on, MacRumors notes that Apple could potentially launch the Vision Pro in the following countries:
- China
- Australia
- Canada
- Japan
- Singapore
- UK
- France
- Germany
- South Korea
The launch is expected to take place before the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024, which is expected to take place in June.
Speaking of the headset itself, most of the exterior of the headset is built with metal (aluminum) and laminated glass, packed with cameras and other sensors like LIDAR to map your surroundings with precision. This headset essentially revolutionizes how you interact with your apps, although, there’s still aren’t many available on the platform. As analyst Ming-Chi Kuo notes, the expected global expansion of this headset before WWDC 2024 might be an effort to get more developers working on enriching the visionOS platform with iOS and iPadOS apps with revamped functionalities.
